The Good, the Bad, and the Thugly

The left is imploding, and things are getting pretty thugly — and no, that’s not a typo.

Teamsters President Jimmy Hoffa, Jr., a thug who comes from a long line of thugs, crowed recently at President Obama’s Labor Day event, “President Obama, this is your army. We are ready to march. Let’s take these sons of bi***es out and give America back to an America where we belong.” If it were an isolated incident, that would be one thing, but consider these other recent quotes.

Congresswoman Maxine Waters (D-California): “The Tea Party can go straight to Hell, and I intend to help them get there.”

Congressman Andre Carson (D-Indiana): “Some of them in Congress right now with this Tea Party movement would love to see you and me — I’m sorry, Tamron — hanging on a tree.”

What are they doing? They’re revealing their campaign strategy for 2012. I talk about this in my most recent article, “The End of Civility?” Read it at the National Review Online.
